What happened: Rekha Gupta launches an online registration portal for Delhi Lakshmi Yojana
Rekha Gupta launched a registration portal for the Delhi Lakshmi Yojana, a women-focused welfare programme that provides eligible women ₹2,500 per month in financial assistance. The portal is intended to enable Delhi Lakshmi Yojana administration through online registration.
The development also states an expected scale of beneficiary coverage under the portal-based registration approach: about 17 lakh women.
Background and earlier position: Delhi Lakshmi Yojana as monthly women’s financial assistance
Delhi Lakshmi Yojana provides monthly financial assistance to eligible women. In welfare delivery models of this type, beneficiary administration typically starts with registration and enrolment, which then enables monthly benefit delivery. The portal launch indicates a shift toward a digitised registration pathway for the administrative process.
What changed now: enrolment is routed through the registration portal
